They’re the true heroes.
Basketball players, wrestlers, and cheerleaders usually get the spotlight during winter sports, but things wouldn’t run the same without high school custodians.
The men doing the hard work at Coupeville, Oak Harbor, and South Whidbey deserve our praise as well.
If it wasn’t for them, we’d likely be watching our little games while buried under a pile of ever-growing trash.
So next time you’re in a Whidbey school gym, take a moment to tip your cap to their work ethic.
And then maybe pick up your dang trash and put it in the garbage can instead of leaving it up in the bleachers, you damn dirty apes!
